I just started a new Writer document, typed fn and then pressed F3, and got the same message:

Someone has made the intelligent suggestion to me (strangely off-list) that you may have pressed the "Fn" key which appears on the restricted keyboards of some laptops instead of typing the letters "fn". That also wouldn't work: by itself, that key does nothing.

Oh, and if you have one of those keyboards, you probably do need to hold down the Fn key in order to make the F3 key do its job afterwards!

Indeed, if you have (mis)interpreted the instructions as meaning that you should hold down the Fn key and then press F3, the error message you quote is exactly what you would see. On this type of keyboard, you need to type "f", type "n", and then hold down the Fn key whilst pressing F3.
